Here is a question hopefully someone may be able to help me with, about 6 months ago i started a sports site, which I placed some deep links into and I am now seeing about 40 - 50 hits a day from MSN, Yahoo and Ask (total - not a lot I know but better than 0 ) Anyway I have been learning php and mysql since starting this project and now feel confident enough to relaunch the site using php and hopefully incorporating datafeeds rather than manual linking to products.
So the question is will I get heavily penalised if I 301 the 73 odd pages I now have over to the equivalent php page i.e. from /football_boots/adidas/f50_tunit.html to search.php?brand=adidas&prod=footballboots&model=f 50
Now I realise I may not list as high in MSN/Yahoo etc as php URLs are a topic for discussion with regards to SERPs but in general how do people feel about 73 301's is that a problem ?
Shouldn't get penalised. A 301 tells the SE's that the page has moved to a different location.
Before you do this is may be an idea to set up mod rewrite to make the URL look a bit more SE friendly. Google mod rewrite or search here for answers on that. I work on Windows servers so not too sure about the rewrite stuff!
